I think there was definite separation between Clowney/Mack/Matthews/Robinson/Watkins... And the rest of the draft. We traded out of the upper echelon.

I'm not punching my cat. I'm not pissy. I'm just disappointed that we dealt out of that area and likely can't cash in until 2015.

But there is a very good reason they did that. Follow the logic. They fucking fleeced Buffalo to move down 5 spots! A first and fourth for next year?! That's four picks in two years so far, maybe five if we trade back into the first. They obviously had CB as one of the top needs on their board with Gilbert highly rated and regarded. They did their job by adding an excellent talent and set this team up for another big draft next year. This is how you build a fucking footballl team.

Edit:

Could be a corner to get out ahead of Detroit.

There's a lot of talent all over this draft year. But we don't get anyone from this draft for this trade. Which is why I'm disappointed.

I HOPE Farmer's guy is a quarterback, and that the reason for this deal is because he knows that that QB is going to be available at 9.

Not crying. Sky isn't falling. Just not very happy with the deal.

I guess... Maybe if they move up from 26 or 35 using these picks? I'd be on board for that.

I'm a diehard Steeler fan and am saying you are out of your damn mind. I hated this trade because its so good for the browns. You act like they moved in to the 20's. They pick at 9.

Not necessarily. I just know that there's no way we're getting anyone I wanted at nine. Good for next year, I guess.

Who @ 9 ?

Gilbert? Dennard? Evans?

Ugh. That's a ways to drop.

You serious? You just got two fucking firsts and 109 to move down 5. You want the browns to start winning? You should love this trade.

Ugh. That's a ways to drop.
